Hidden Moth

Chapter 179: What Drives Me Shall Never Be Lost


Uncle Hu Shulue actually had incredible superpowers, like the magic described in fantasy novels, almost taking Ye Liangcheng's life, luckily, Bitter Tea saved him by chance.

Evidently, Bitter Tea was also the same kind of person as Hu Shulue and had mastered such divine techniques as well.

Bitter Tea asked him why he ambushed Hu Shulue, and Ye Liangcheng answered truthfully. Bitter Tea told him that Hu Shulue was also a Secret Cultivator, and his cultivation level was quite high.

What would an ordinary person like Ye Liangcheng's first reaction be to such an event? Just like He Kao at that time, of course, he wanted to become an apprentice and learn the techniques!

Bitter Tea did not immediately agree to his request but told him that his mind was clouded by hatred and that he needed to diligently cultivate his state of mind. He taught him a set of techniques for sitting meditation, advising him to return and practice with a calm mind.

Bitter Tea did not leave any contact information, but Ye Liangcheng actively left his own address and contact information, the so-called address being the abandoned startup park.

Ye Liangcheng returned full of hope, with nothing else to do but guard the unfinished building, he devoted himself to cultivating the technique Bitter Tea had taught him. About a month later, Bitter Tea found him again.

Bitter Tea claimed that he had been observing him in secret for a while and felt he was a promising talent, so Ye Liangcheng formally took Bitter Tea as his master and began learning the Secret Technique from then on.

Hearing this, He Kao nodded slightly and said, "So this is how you started your cultivation... but I have a question, over the years, what was your purpose for cultivating the Secret Technique?"

Ye Liangcheng, who was in the middle of refilling a wine decanter, paused. The purpose of cultivating the Secret Technique? Is this even a question! For everyone who has received the inheritance of the Secret Technique and succeeded in cultivating it, this doesn't even need to be asked.

Enhancing the senses and physique, and thus obtaining the legendary magical abilities, is an evolution and transformation of the life form, a huge temptation for anyone. The results gained from cultivating the Secret Technique are a purpose in themselves.

Who doesn't want a better physical and mental state, who doesn't want stronger abilities, who doesn't want to be extraordinary? Ye Liangcheng put down the wine bottle, and this was the answer he gave, with a hint of excitement and thrill in his response.

He Kao was slightly taken aback, realizing that he had been too immersed in playing the sage role, and this question was rather unnecessary. If someone else had asked him, he probably would have answered the same, as it was an answer straight from the heart.

He Kao then timely stood up and said, "Today's wine has been enjoyed enough; let's talk again next time."

Ye Liangcheng wanted to chat a bit more; he had just been talking to himself and hadn't yet asked about many other things. He quickly asked, "Elder Huo Qing, did you specifically come to see me today, and do you have any instructions?"

He Kao replied, "Everything that needed to be said has been said. Having the fortune of receiving the inheritance of the Secret Technique, cherish and be cautious with it."

Ye Liangcheng asked, "What should I do next? If, and I'm just saying if, Bitter Tea Master's other disciples find me here, how should I speak to them?"

He Kao thought for a while and said, "I am not aware of their situation, nor do I know what they've been doing in private; you probably don't know much about them either... In light of such a sudden change, I suggest that you don't easily trust anyone.

If someone really does find you here, you may establish contact, confirm their identity, and observe their conduct, and decide other matters depending on the situation. As for the things that Bitter Tea left here, take them as you need for your cultivation."

With these words, He Kao left directly, leaving Ye Liangcheng deep in thought.

Why did Ye Liangcheng ask these questions?

Because if his other companions are in the same situation as him, suddenly receiving Master Kucha's orders to hide away, they might stay dormant for a while, but ultimately they would be unable to resist wanting to uncover what happened.

Where else would they seek out information, but here at this secret Dao Field for clues. Ye Liangcheng didn't know whether Bitter Tea had any other cultivation fields elsewhere, but many had indeed come here.

There was also one crucial question; all of these people were facing the same dilemma: there was no one left to guide them in their Secret Technique Cultivation anymore… even Ye Liangcheng was in such a plight.

Ye Liangcheng had been staying here unwilling to leave for this very reason.

Over the past half year, he had indeed been slack in his cultivation, not only due to feeling lost but also because he had no way forward. Bitter Tea Master's teachings had been practiced to their peak, and he didn't know what to do next.

So when Elder Huo Qing appeared, he sparked a glimmer of hope. Clearly, Elder Huo Qing was a mysterious sage like Bitter Tea, and he hoped to continue receiving guidance... other people surely had the same thought.

The calmness and ease Elder Huo Qing displayed before him were definitely not feigned; only someone with a strong heart could be so composed, deriving confidence from an unwavering inner strength.

But Elder Huo Qing's words were also true: with Bitter Tea Master having encountered an unexpected situation, though Elder Huo Qing was unwilling to speak much, it was clear there were other inner details, and those fellows who lost contact and whose identities were uncertain were probably not trustworthy either.

Ye Liangcheng silently contemplated every word Elder Huo Qing had said, especially the question he left before leaving. He had answered too quickly, without much thought.

Elder Huo Qing probably had other intentions and wanted to ask what he would do after cultivating the Secret Technique.

From this, it could be understood that Elder Huo Qing might value character most in this aspect. And as for Bitter Tea Master's other disciples, the reason he said not to trust them easily might be that, after gaining the inheritance of the Secret Technique, some may have committed misconduct.
